Start with what you love.
Search verified collections by name or 0.0.x token ID on the homepage. Open one to browse its NFTs — or, with a serial number, open that exact NFT and see which Hedera account holds it.
Verified collections only — not every NFT on Hedera.

02Meet the people
Collections connect collectors.
Search Collectors by username or 0.0.x account, or pick a collection to see who holds it. A profile shows the verified NFTs a collector holds, plus any links they chose to add.
Holders, not every wallet
Hbarter members and other Hedera wallets holding verified collections — not every Hedera wallet.
Refreshed periodically, not live
Holdings are indexed and refreshed periodically, so counts can be partial or a little behind. Hedera's record is what counts.
No DMs or follows
Hbarter has no chat. Any X or website link is one the collector added.
Illustration: one collection with the collectors who hold it linked around it, and one profile opened.
Snapshot
03Be found
Your collection is your introduction.
Hold an Hbarter-verified collection and Collectors may already include your wallet. Signing in — one short message in your wallet, not a transaction, and it moves nothing — makes that Collector profile yours, so people who share your collections can find you by name.
Same Hedera account, one Collector profile — there is no hide switch, and your profile page can be opened by anyone with its address.
Your NFTs appear once your holdings are indexed — for example after you open your own profile.
Who can send you Collector Offers is your call — Everyone or Nobody, in Edit Profile. It never changes whether you are listed.
Either way, sending an offer moves nothing, and open offers don't expire. Nothing trades until both sides approve the swap.
05Approve on Hedera
Both sides decide. Hedera settles.
Accepting moves nothing — it opens a swap page for the two of you.
Illustration only, not a live swap: the trade is reviewed, each wallet approves on its own, then Hedera settles both sides together.

1
Review
Check the exact trade on Hbarter — every NFT each way, plus any HBAR, token or fee for your side. Your wallet may show only a schedule ID.
2
Approve
Each side approves the same trade in their own wallet — in a Secure Swap, at different times and in either order, within the swap page's window.
3
Settle
Hedera runs it as one all-or-nothing transaction. Hbarter records it after Hedera confirms.
Not every wallet request is a swap.
Moves no NFTs
Connect your walletPairs your wallet so Hbarter can ask for approvals.
Sign inA free message, not a transaction.
Associate a tokenIf needed, a separate transaction that lets you receive a token. You pay its Hedera network fee, and it stays even if the trade doesn't happen.
Can move assets
Approve the swapYour side of the same trade. Assets move only when Hedera runs it.
What it costs
Hbarter's swap fee is 2 HBAR from each side, paid inside the swap — and only if it succeeds. The swap page shows the exact amount, or a promotional waiver, before you sign.
If time runs out, either side cancels before both have signed, or Hedera rejects it, nothing in the swap moves and no swap fee is charged. A token association stays done.
Your profile page and your Collectors card, open Collector Offers — including who sent them — and listings with their offers.
What's checked
Collector holdings are indexed, not live. Before a swap is built and when you sign, Hbarter re-checks ownership on Hedera — and Hedera refuses the whole swap if anything changed.
What you sign
Only approve a wallet request that appears right after you press a button on Hbarter — for a swap, Review & Sign Swap. Hbarter never DMs you to sign or asks for your recovery phrase.
Checks reduce risk; they don't remove it. A confirmed Hedera transaction can't be reversed.

No. Searching and browsing verified collections, collector profiles and listings works without connecting a wallet. You only connect to sign in, make an offer, list an NFT or approve a swap.
Collectors can include Hbarter members, plus Hedera accounts holding Hbarter-verified NFT collections found through a public holder index that Hbarter refreshes periodically — not every Hedera wallet, and no sign-in needed to be included. Holdings can be partial or a little behind Hedera, so someone may not appear under a collection until their holdings are indexed.
Your wallet asks you to connect, then to sign one short message that proves the account is yours. It's free, isn't a transaction and moves nothing. You become an Hbarter member under the same Hedera account — if that wallet already shows in Collectors, it is the same Collector profile, now with your username, links and Hbarter trading controls, and who can send you Collector Offers is a separate setting in Edit Profile.
Yes — a Collector Offer. From a collector's profile, offer 1 to 5 of your verified NFTs for 1 to 5 of theirs, if they accept offers. It's NFTs for NFTs only, and each collector chooses whether they take offers from everyone or nobody, and from which collections. While your offer is open, the NFTs you offered can't go into a new listing.
No. An open Collector Offer shows on the receiving collector's public profile — the NFTs both ways and the sender's account, username and picture. Offers on a listing are public too, including HBAR amounts. Hbarter has no private messages.
Accepting moves nothing. It opens a swap page for the two of you, where each side checks the exact trade and approves it in their own wallet. Hbarter re-checks ownership on Hedera before the swap is built. If something has changed, or the time runs out, the trade doesn't go ahead and nothing moves.
Not in a Secure Swap. Each side signs when they're ready, in either order, within the window shown on the swap page. Your wallet may show a schedule ID rather than every NFT, so check the exact trade on Hbarter before you approve.
A Hedera account can't receive a token it isn't associated with. If you're due to receive an NFT — or a payment token — from a collection your account has never held, you may need to associate it first. It's a separate transaction you approve in your own wallet, and you pay its Hedera network fee — Hbarter doesn't pay it for you. Associating moves no NFTs, doesn't commit you to the trade, and stays in place even if the trade never happens.
Hbarter's swap fee is 2 HBAR from each side, paid inside the swap — and only if it succeeds. The swap page shows the exact amount, or a promotional waiver, before you sign. In the current flow, Hbarter pays the Hedera network fee for the swap itself. If you need a token association, that fee is yours to pay. A collection can set its own fees: on an HBAR or token sale, its royalty comes out of the seller's proceeds, and an NFT-for-NFT trade can carry a fallback fee for the person receiving the NFT. Hedera assesses collection fees and Hbarter doesn't receive them; they're shown before you sign, and setups Hbarter can't support are blocked.
Then nothing in the swap moves and no Hbarter swap fee is charged. Either side can cancel until both have signed; after that, Hedera runs the whole swap or none of it. A cancelled swap closes that offer, and so does one that was already created on Hedera and then ran out of time or failed — a new trade needs a new offer. If time runs out before the swap was created, the offer stays open. A token association you already made stays done.
